Criken, nooo!

dear god the ballista(s?) in the game are hilarious to watch!

Oh, another brief series of questions!

How prominent will siege weaponry (ballistae, trebuchet, catapults, etc.) be in the game? Will we be able to use flaming ammunition? I think you've already answered yes and probably to these, but I don't totally recall.
More importantly, will limbs go flying and will they do damage to people they hit? I want to see a cadre of bandits flee in fear after the catapult I brought along for no reason scores a direct hit on their commander and his arm bitch slaps one of his fellow bandits from 30 feet away.
Will ladders and grappling hooks be implemented for scaling walls? Would a defender be able to dislodge them? And would someone playing an assassin be able to use said grappling hook to scale buildings and the like?
Grappling hooks made me think of alternative weapons such as bolas and the like. Are there any plans to include weaponry to trip up opponents/screw up their horses? How about nonlethal take-downs?
When battle lines crash, will there occasionally be pushing and shoving around prior to all out combat? For visual reference, when the Persians first engage the Spartans in 300.
Will your character gain titles and nicknames for his or her accolades/defining features? Like Leatra the One Eyed, or Mad King WraithLord?
Will character appearance change over time? Say, if your guy is always swinging that sword arm and charging through trees, will he become more muscular? If you got a king that does nothing but sit on his throne, will he eventually turn into fat lard man? (Fun fact, as a kid a few friends and I made a video by the title Fat Lard Man.) I highly doubt this one, as I figure it'd be nigh impossible to implement, at least without being too demanding, but I figured I'd ask anyway!

Is it apparent I spent a lot of time on public transportation today?

I so want to sig that
edit: the deed is done

also, an extension to the grappling hooks, how about good, wholesome ladders? and by an extension of extensions, boiling tar/ a hearty push on the people climbing said ladder?

Those are some very fancy lookin' trees. I like it.

There are lots of random character generators for D&D online.

If you can't find one you can use than just go to the D&D wiki and look through races until you find one you like.

I probably should have thought of that myself. Thanks for the help

looks cool! I just downloaded it, but I won't have enough time to play a round right now . Maybe tomorrow, if I can.

edit: it crashed, unfortunately. I forgot/ don't know how to get a report, but it happened when I accepted a heroes offer for a tunic, if that helps.

Does Corvo's head always detach itself from his body when he dies? because the camera rolls like a bouncy ball if you get killed.

does anyone else find the name generator to be quite entertaining? I recently started using my troopers names for usernames on some sites.
